A photograph of a ceremonial darshan scene at a gilded throne decorated with green foliage and colourful flowers. A long-haired figure in an orange-saffron robe with a white and red flower garland sits on the golden throne, extending a hand to offer a small wrapped gift to a young girl in a yellow dress. A woman in a white top with a dark bag stands at left holding out a flower-wrapped item, and an attendant in white stands behind. Another man in orange stands behind the girl holding a tray, and a silver tray with colourful bundles rests on the throne side. The figure in orange with long hair and distinctive saffron robe, seated on the throne, suggests Swamiji (probable).

A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a multicoloured flower garland receiving a small wrapped gift from a woman in a white top who kneels before him. The seated man has long swept-back hair, a bare-shouldered orange garment and a red-and-white floral garland, and sits on a gold-ornate throne with cushions. Behind him stand two men in orange: one with a shaved head and orange cloth, wearing a gold necklace, and another with long hair and a gold pendant. Flower garlands in red and orange drape the backdrop, and a gold-framed panel decorates the wall. A small child's hand is visible near the woman. Presentation of gifts before a throne suggests a darshan or prasad offering; the seated figure appears to be Swamiji (probable), identified by long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, a flower garland and ceremonial gold ornaments.2009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24A photograph of a ceremonial exchange in an ashram hall. A man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing orange saffron clothing, a garland of multicoloured flowers and rudraksha-style beads, sits on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, smiling as he holds a small blue packet and a sweet-like offering. Behind him a gold-carved throne back shows a deity relief, and flower-decorated arches frame the scene. In front, a young woman in a white dress and a woman in a gold-bordered white sari stand offering a paper item. A second man in orange robes and beads stands between them. A metal bowl of wrapped candies sits at the right, and a fan is at the left.2009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24A photograph of a ceremony in a decorated hall. A long-haired man in orange robes with a rudraksha-style garland of flowers sits on a gold-ornate throne, reaching out to a young girl in white who bows her head toward him. A woman in a white sari with a black handbag stands beside her, and a man in orange with gold necklaces stands at left, with a woman in yellow behind him. Floral garlands of marigolds and roses hang around the throne, and a silver tray of sweets sits at right. The seated figure shows distinctive long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate garlands, consistent with a person presence, so he is treated as a probable in-person candidate.2009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24December 24 20092009-12-24
